terday morning was ao occasion of general
rejoicing among our citizens, great and small.
The schools, one and all, were well attended,
and the happy, smiling faces worn by the

to superintend the schools were mostly
present on the opening of their aeyjxal
charges as followe: -
Normal School-C. G. Memmlnger, William
Aiken.
Meeting street School-Rev. William B.
Yates, J. W. Read.

pleasing address to the children assembled..

THE .GREAT DRAWING which' ls to "come off]
next week is beginning to attract a large snare
of public attention. All the gentlemen who
lave been named as supervisors, are expected
to be present, riscept, perhaps, G?n?ral Pryor,
who is kept away by domestic- affliction.
Meanwhile, the agents are busy from morning
till late at night, and the tickets are going
off like hot cakes.
A PUSHING FIRM.-Among the new houses
which 1872 ushers into commercial existence,
one of the most prominent and prosperous ls
I .that of Quackenbush, E3till & Co. The rapidity
with which Mr. J. A. Quackenbush has built
up an extensive grocery and commission bust
ness since the war is a striking instance of |
what can be accomplished by energy, industry
and tact, even in the conservative .City ol
Charleston. In associating with himself Messrs.
A. D. Estiil and T. E. Jordan, Mr. Quacken?
bush has added new strengh to his house; for
both are excellent business men. The former
is the president of the Chicora Phosphate Com?
pany, and a brother of the proprietor ol the
Savannah Newe.
THE DRAMA Katy Darling,^or Put Yourself
I in her Place, wlth^Mrsv Ros^ Walkin/ as
l?Katy,'; and. Harry as the faithful "Andy," was11
played last evening at the Academylo a mod?
erate house. The piece itself is full of life and
interest, and in the hands of the two leading
actors lost none of its effect The rest of the
company, with one exception, were well np
in their parts, and the two villains in par?
ticular elicited frequent applause by their
grotesque acting.
At the end of the flt st piece a storm of ap?
plause brought the Watkinses before the cur?
tain, when the lady made a bow and Mr. Wat?
kins a few remarks. He said that to-night
they would repeat (as they had not yet played
it here,) "Nobody's Child," and as the andi
ence seemed sc much pleased then he hoped
they would come again to-night and bring all
their friends along. The address was received
with much applause, and all who follow Harry's
advice will enjoy a pleasant evening.
On the 15th instant we are to have Bishop's
Dramatic Comp iny. under the management of ?
Mr. Ford. Bishop, the star or rather the full
moon of the company, 1B too well known here
to need an introduction. He ls accompanied
by the Rand Sisters.
